Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The recent surge in interest in membrane technology and its cutting-edge applications among academics and scientists is indicative of its potential to address the complex issues associated with wastewater treatment. This Special Issue was developed with the explicit purpose of delving into advanced membrane-based technologies tailored for desalination and water reuse. The central focus of this initiative is the development of efficient separation membranes, involving a meticulous exploration of their fabrication and performance optimisation. The spectrum of technologies covered includes membrane distillation (MD), pervaporation (PV), forward osmosis (FO), reverse osmosis (RO), nanofiltration (NF), ultrafiltration (UF), microfiltration (MF), and more. Encompassing both experimental and theoretical research activities, this Special Issue aims to create a comprehensive understanding of these membrane technologies within the field of water reuse and desalination applications. Esteemed researchers and academics are warmly invited to contribute their latest findings to bring forth a wealth of insights into the design and development of advanced membrane-based technologies. Original research and review papers are sought to enrich the scholarly discourse, fostering a collaborative environment to advance our understanding of sustainable wastewater treatment.

This Special Issue serves as a dynamic platform for the exchange of knowledge, where the collective contributions of researchers will contribute to transformative advances in the field of membrane technologies for wastewater treatment.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Membranes is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
